Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®)

To give our students the financial support they need, our school is certified to participate in the Title IV Federal Financial Aid Program. Students can complete their FAFSA Application at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Our school code is: 041417.

What is FSA and FAFSA?

Federal Student Aid (FSA) and the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) are government-sponsored funding packages that assist students with the cost of tuition, housing, and other fees associated with higher education. The package may be made up of federal grants and scholarships (which do not need to be repaid) and loans (which do need to be repaid). Typically, these awards are determined based on the economic needs of students and are calculated from the FAFSA data collected on the student and/or their parents.

Aid may be available to help with non-tuition expenses. Here are some resources to consider:

Welfare-to-Work: Program participants may be eligible for help with child care, transportation, and work-related or training-related expenses. Participants who find a job and are no longer eligible for welfare may continue to receive help with medical care and child care expenses. If you qualify, Welfare-to-Work can help pay for school materials and supplies, but not tuition.

CalWorks Child Care Program: The purpose of this program is to help a family transition smoothly from the immediate, short-term child care needed as the parent starts work or work activities to the stable, long-term child care necessary for the family to live and remain off aid.

Build Futures: This group helps young adults 18 – 24 years old with assistance for housing, phones, bus passes, and related resources with the goal of self-sufficiency for the young adult.

The Teen Project: Provides teens who are aging out of the foster care system with all of the resources and support of an intact family. To allow the greatest opportunity for a successful transition to adulthood.
